The following pieces contain language that may be offensive. Some of the pieces deal with sensitive matters, surviving 7 years of child sexual abuse and 16 years of mental and physical child abuse. I used to think being a survivor of childhood abuse gave me a purpose - but now that I have a daughter who was born with a life threatening CHD called Truncus Arteriosus, my purpose has become greater than me - my work has shifted slightly to include her. Enjoy!

Firestorm

May I clear the webs that surround my heart. May I clear the thoughts that overwhelm my mind. May I feel the storm that breathes life into my body that has been tattered and torn.

Who am I?

I discovered my voice several years ago through journal-style writing and poetry. While not always using proper English or grammar, I use blogging as a way to heal and write about sensitive issues. I will always tell it like it is and make no apologies for writing what I am thinking. I love to write creatively. While most of my work deals with non-fiction pieces, I also enjoy writing fictional short stories.
